Course Topics:
This course will follow three major themes, with a major hands-on component for each.
Theme (Hands-on Component)
At the end of the religion and mythology theme, students will choose a myth from anywhere in the world, and then at a special virtual campfire, we will build forts and then each student will tell their story.
During the construction and building theme, each week students will try their hand at building a model of some of the historical structures we discuss. This will require a variety of simple and easy to find materials.
At the end of the historical figures theme, students will dress up like their favourite historical figure, and then we will have a virtual party as our chosen person. This will require students to make a costume from things they find, and then prepare a snack/drink appropriate to the figure they have chosen.
